Had been fixing this crap for a morning...Please help me...

Well,I dont know if word/extended things affect the result or not,I dont even know their difference...But all of the codes didnt work.

Those codes might be crashing the emulator. First they seem still encrypted, convert them to raw first. Second, use extended from now on.

May I know why extended...?(These codes are converted from AR2 though,using Omniconvert)

Original code I've found:

MONEY MAX
1CFFA068 1DBC9E0C

Parts all nine
7CFFA3E0 143EE7A6
3CA08331 1456E7A5
1CFFA240 1456E79E

EXP x 4
9C9AD328 1453D3CC
9C9AD32C 1454D725
9C9AD330 0C4D2C85
9CB46EA0 0C539BA5
9CB46EA4 2694B00C

Doesn't the source say what was the used encryption? like ARMAX, Codebreaker (some version)... or something else?

Use that information as input and "unencrypted Standard" as output.

Extended is, like the name says... extended code interpreter, it will take the first digit of the code to automatically determine the code type/length. The old tokens (byte, short and word) are specific length defining words and take the first digit as part of the address, what may and probably will mess everything. Besides limited they were cause of so much confusion (forcing the change of the address offset first digit in most cases) making unclear the actual code's length later on.

To understand what I mean, a code starting with 0 in the address means it is byte length. Starting with 1 means it is short length (two bytes) and starting with 2 means it is word length (four bytes). above these values the usage of extended is obligatory.

But that is not everything, since using byte, short or word implies the address offset MUST start with 2 (or 0 which is automatically mirrored/changed to 2) this forces changing the first digit what eventually leads to confusion. As stated before, using a code starting with 1 almost certainly will crash the emulator in this case.

To make things worse, many users didn't understand the importance of the value length and made too much mess afterward, using words where should be byte and every possible combination of mistakes...

So they are deprecated now, always use "extended" without changing the original code other then the conversion where necessary and things will go well.

In time: those codes seem to be in ARMAX but I'm not sure and don't know a good converter for them. Maybe someone else can help you in that specific, or you can search the net for it in the meanwhile.

In order to convert non-raw codes to pnach format, read this guide A simplistic guide to pnach files.

Omniconvert settings: (In this case)
Input -> Action Replay -> Version 1
Output -> Unencrypted -> Standard


However, there is a problem. Most of these codes are type A codes. I'm not sure, but I think pcsx2 doesn't support type A codes and I'm not familiar with.
But according to this page, I think that type A codes can be replaced with type 2 codes.

Finally, here are the codes I think it will work. try these. but I can't guarantee it will work fine.


Code:
// MONEY MAX

// Parts all nine
patch=1,EE,406820B8,extended,00180001

patch=1,EE,20682118,extended,00000009
